Welcome
We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!
The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!

MODERATORS
Manipulating the currency exchange rate is one of the favorite activities of corrupt autocratic governments.
It's a method to give the impression that the full scale invasion did not hurt their economy, hell it even made it better.
However, you can keep up the facade for only so long until the natural forces of the market overpower and break it.
